STUFFED JALAPENOS
I had these at a buffet restaurant and decided they would be easy to duplicate. They are my go-to side dish for almost any occasion! You can make these with colorful bell peppers, too. (I buy the "baby" bells in bulk.) Serve these with burgers, steak, ribs, tacos, beans and rice, chili, roast chicken, baked potatoes, green...

Steps:
- 1. Wash and dry jalapenos. Split each pepper lengthwise into 2-3 boat-shaped pieces. remove stems, seeds, and as much of internal membrane as possible (to reduce heat).
- 2. Arrange pepper-boats in single layer in 9x13 baking dish. (You will need two or more dishes, or just save the rest of the peppers for a later batch.) Sprinkle lightly with salt.
- 3. Fill each boat with a little plain cream cheese. (I like to soften the cream cheese and "pipe" it from a plastic baggie with the corner snipped off, but I tend to get a little over-generous and run out of cheese before all the boats are topped.)
- 4. Cut bacon strips into 4-6 long slivers. I cut mine in half crosswise, and then 2-3 strips lengthwise. You might want to trim some of the fattier bits off, but they will all crisp up in the oven, so no worries.
- 5. Top each boat with a sliver of bacon, nudging it down into the cheese to make certain it sticks. (You don't want your bacon falling off when it's served.)
- 6. Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Peppers should be well wilted and cheese should be just starting to brown. Allow to cool a little before serving. Makes 50-75 pieces. (Not servings, because you can't eat only one!)
- 7. These are perfect for picnics and BBQs. Cool completely and pack in airtight containers, in single layers, separated by waxed paper. Keep refrigerated if there are any leftovers. But use them up within a couple days!

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my stuffed jalapeños didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped. The filling was a bit dry and the jalapeños were a bit tough.

[email protected]These stuffed jalapeños were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using milder jalapeños if you're not a fan of spicy food.
